t Smisje Catherine The Great Imperial Stout

It is red-brown with a huge, creamy head – but the color does not make me think of an Impy... The aroma has light notes of smoke, vegetables, perfumed fruit, spice, roasted malt and yeast. The flavour has hints of smoke and notes of vegetables, perfumed fruit, coriander and other spices, roasted malt and yeast – it’s a very weird impy...

Bottled. An unclear brown beer with a huge tan head. The aroma is sweet malty with notes of spices and caramel. The flavor is also sweet with notes of spices, caramel and malt, as well as light notes of wood, leading to a dry spicy finish. Thanks KimJohansen for sharing.

Brown in color with a medium sized off-white head. Aroma is of oak, ash, smoke and fried chinese dumplings. Flavor is of oak and a mild cigar.

Bottle 33 cl. Pours a dark brown with a yellowish white head and a sweet aroma of sweet berries, hops, smoke and sweet malts. The flavour has a lot of sweet malts, but also candy sugar, burned wood and dark chocolate. The finish is boozy almost like one of those supermarket "strong beers". Drinkable, but a bit of a let don.

bottle, pours dark brown with a big tan head. Hoppy nose. Huge biscuit malt flavors, little bit of alcohol and a roasted flavor. This is an enjoyable beer.

208 Bottle - Pours amber with a large offwhite head...aroma is malty, smokey and thin...flavour follows, charred wood, burned grain...well hidden alcohol...not too good...

Lots of Belgian yeast, recognizable as a Regenboog beer. Very dark brown. Fairly dry, lightly roasted with malt, but not very sweet. Probably more of a Belgian strong.

Pours a deep red with a tan head. The aroma is earthy with detectable malt and alcohol. The taste is sort of thin and confusing - it starts out slightly malty and then explodes into overpowering booziness on the end. Color me shocked, but this is a very rare miss from these guys.
